Bike Ride Description
COURSE: Similar to the first long time trial of 2003, when Lance Armstrong suffered from dehydration at Cap'Découverte, this long, hilly time trial on the edge of the Massif Central is likely to be contested in burning heat. The course leaves Albi to the east on long, straight roads that climb gradually to the first time check at Villefranche d'Albigeois (18km).
There it follows a sharp descent to the town of Ambialet (29km), where the riders turn left along the Tarn River valley before tackling the main climb (560 vertical feet in 3km) to the second time split on the Côte de la Bauzié (38.5km). The fi nal 15km is mainly downhill on a highway back into Albi.
